OK, I’m going to challenge the statement that AfD would be considered left in the US. I’m from the US and I’ve seen their politics and they would defnitely be considered far right in the US sense (or our current “right” which is MAGA in power). I appreciate your point about media labels, though, so everyone should apply critical thinking to those labels for sure.

Which makes sense since it’s a fruit
- Comment on US demands access to tourists' social media histories 6 days ago:
I agree with you. I’m not saying the EU isn’t doing better on substantially every level like education, social services, policing, well being, worker rights, etc. I’m saying the EU is at risk and it’s it goes beyond just the US and global tech corpratism to authoritarian & oligaritarian influence of (soft and hard) compaigns to shift the EU far right. I am saying I hope the EU can hold on to what they have and push back further!
On a side note, the Nazi’s borrowed a lot of their eugenics from the US and our deeply ingrained racism, so I’m not 100% sure this is new
- Comment on US demands access to tourists' social media histories 6 days ago:
I’ll continue to equate the right wing with far right extremism until they give me evidence to conclude otherwise. You can call that a code for “out of power” if that’s your way of thinking, but it’s not mine and I certainly didn’t use it that way. I believe it’s the reality of the ratcheting overton window for 50 years.

Perhaps a bit ironically, William Shattner has really terrible tinnitus and once considered offing himself because of it.

I dunno, and this sanity check is coming from someone who’s visited over a dozen times and loves it there… EU is not all fun and games, they are going to enforce chat control, apparently bowing to pressure on GDPR, has enforced facial recognition to enter, and right wing parties are growing in multiple countries including the big economic houses: Germany, France, UK. We’re all over here looking at you folks to show us the way and if you blink in your resolve, you’re going to end up where we are.
On a positive note, Drumpf’s policies are hitting a wall of awareness, resistance and resolve. Our recent elections are giving some hope. His pedophile protecting tight grip is loosening it’s hold as his desperately unpopular and catastrophic policies are forcing “masks off” upping of their rhetoric and abusive policies. This shows their real racist nazi agenda to everyone and it’s only dropping their approval. We’re worried they will cook the books next November, but the hope is we can reign in the insanity and undo the damage in the coming decade. It’s going to take that long and we will need to start with our dear friends in Canada).
- Comment on Now begins the Age of Suffering, brought to you by WSJ 1 week ago:
Another Illinoisan checking in. I detassled with a kid who died this way one summer. He was like 17. Do NOT fuck around with corn silos. Have a classmate who’s kid had his pantleg get caught in a tractor’s PTO (I think - it may have been something connected to it)… absolutely tore his leg up and almost bled out (reconstructed and he’s walking now). And knew another dude who had a tractor roll over on him on a slope. I personally, sank the end of a razor sharp derogueing hook into my thumb and narrowly avoided lopping it right off. It’s dangerous fucking work and demands your respect and constant attention.

Yah, it was a joke (perhaps not a great one) and /s was implied. lemmy.world/u/Hawke has it correct - martinis was fully implied bu “business lunch” often known as a “liquid lunch”. No apology necessary internet friend - it was strictly in jest and not being snarky to you or your comment.

Waiting for the “sounds like you need new friends” joke, but that’s really a bummer. It’s difficult to make friends and connect with people as it is, and then this shit polarizes us and makes what used to be a fairly private stance something that would rarely, if ever, come up in friendly conversation. Hopefully they aren’t raging Nazis or anything…

- Comment on Time travel doesn't work unless you also have teleportation. If you travel to the past/future, Earth will be in a different position in its orbit, and you'll die in space. 5 months ago:
Nope, not possible. The solar system itself is moving as is the galaxy… it’s useful to think of Earth’s orbit as spiraling around the sun in the direction our star is traveling. So 1 orbit later we have not come to the same location.
